What happened to my childhood?
Where did it all go?
I swear it was right there...
All my self-confidence, my imagination, my courage, my creativity...
But it all just disappeared...
And know their replaced by Stress, anxiety, and self-doubt...
I swear just a minute ago I was playing on the swings with my friends...
I swear a minute ago I was playing tag at the park...
I swear a minute ago I was playing hide and seek in the backyard...
What happened?
Where did it go?
I swear it was right there...
Now...
I spend 8 hours a day on my phone.
Now...
I lock myself in my room.
Now...
I have test and homework I have to do.
Now...
I have to plan the rest of my life, do good in high school, get good grades, get into a good college, what collage will I go to? What is my profession going to be?
What happened to my childhood?
Where did it go?
I swear it was right there a minute ago...
